Giải thích cho trẻ em

Imagine you're playing hide-and-seek, but instead of hiding behind the big tree where everyone always hides, you pick a spot all by yourself without asking for help. That's kind of like what God is talking about here. He's saying that when people try to do things without His help, they often make things worse.
